Russian intelligence services threatened to harm the families of Wagner leaders before Yevgeny Prigozhin called off his advance on Moscow, according to UK security sources.
To the surprise of no one
It was my first thought when he backed down yesterday, but I also realize that I’m missing 90% of the info.
You might be forgiven if you assume that the rebels foresaw this development and hid their immediate family but once again in ruzzzia nothing stays private and everything is for sale so who knows, it adds another dimension to the whole thing
This is getting spicy, It made little sense that he would turn around and this piece of news is not exactly reliable but it would account for the sudden change of heart lol. And the next weeks/months are gonna be quite interesting to say the least…
Prigozhin and his 8,000 thugs are in Belarus which is also where Putin has stashed some of his nukes. Either Lukashenko is in danger or Prigozhin is. If Prigozhin wins then he’ll have Putin is his nuclear sights.
I called it!
